I'm having trouble finding good arguments against right to work laws, and I thought this work be a place that could help me out. If this isn't, mods please let me know and where might be a better place to ask this, and I'll get rid of this post.
I want to qualify that I very much believe in unions being a good thing and was in the union at my last position, there is no union in my current one though I'm seeing about doing something about that. Also with that being said I was let down by my union multiple times and I had to reach out to them to get any info to join, they weren't great. This is a bit of background to understand my questions to follow.
I was looking up information about unions as I'm trying to get something going for myself and my coworkers and I got onto right to work laws. In reading about them I've found that it allows workers not to join if they don't want to, even though it's likely to hurt them, or to join other unions that is not the main union. I know that unions are almost always better for workers than not having one for themselves. I don't see forced membership as a good thing though. Again my union let me down multiple times and I saw many instances of protection for certain groups and not others, and taking away negotiated things for one group to give things to another. This is where having another union option is really helpful. It seems that all the cons to the right to work laws were mainly just statistical disadvantages to workers that decided to not be in a union, or that the union doesn't get enough money. I looked through about 8 different sites thoroughly and aimed over many many more that didn't really address what I'm trying to learn about. I know companies love not having to deal with unions and some are of course, well to say very underhanded is quite an understatement, but by law they can't stop us. I know those laws need to be much stronger and enforceable. I just can't find great reasons to force unionship, especially from one specific union only at a location, on people who may not want it. If like help in understanding this as I just feel there has to be better arguments again right to work laws.
Thank you for reading through this, I hope I am making enough sense to be worth answering.
